#60: Egg Bowl could be a shootout – 11/25/16

It’s Egg Bowl week. Mississippi State and Ole Miss renew their long-running rivalry at 2:30 p.m. Saturday in Oxford, and both are looking to put a shine on disappointing seasons.

On this episode, Parrish and Logan look at how the teams match up (2:08), with particular focus on Ole Miss freshman QB Shea Patterson. The guys also examine the struggling defenses – MSU’s young unit has seemingly gotten worse (5:21), while the Rebels’ defensive line hasn’t lived up to preseason billing (8:36).

Each teams’ defensive woes have caused rumors to swirl of possible coaching moves on that side of the ball (12:26).

On the offensive side, the run game will be key for Ole Miss (16:21), while State QB Nick Fitzgerald and the read-option could be a big matchup problem for the Rebs (20:15).

Also, Parrish and Logan make their game predictions (24:35), and they expect a shootout.
